Solution for rehoming pets and finding new companions
The founder of a pet locator app in San Antonio, Texas, needed major help to fix and prepare the app for the App Store.
The initial version, which lets users post animals for rehoming and search for pets by zip code, was not up to par and needed a complete overhaul.

A Cute Start
Vinnove stepped in to redevelop the app from scratch, handling both front-end and back-end work for iOS and Android. They crafted a user-friendly interface and added social features like direct messaging, photo and description postings, and sharing to Facebook and Instagram.
Exploring the Importance of Dark Mode
In today’s digital age, the significance of dark mode in mobile applications cannot be overstated.
For a pet locator app, particularly in environments with low lighting or during nighttime searches, implementing a dark mode feature is not just a stylistic choice, but a crucial aspect of usability and accessibility.
Keeping Clients in the Loop
Vinnove’s team gave bi-weekly updates through Innovation, a real-time project tracking tool, keeping the process transparent and the client engaged.
Rebuilding Success
The entire redevelopment took five months—two months to fix existing problems and three months for the complete rebuild. After the launch, the app’s user ratings went up significantly, showing its improved appeal and functionality.
The founder praised Vinnove’s exceptional project management and real-time updates, noting a much better experience than with previous developers.
Vinnove used cutting-edge project management tools to ensure clear communication and real-time tracking, keeping the app’s development on track and meeting all launch requirements successfully.
“Their engagement was far superior to our previous developers, and there’s nothing I can think of that needs improvement.”
